Super Mario Galaxy 2: have you got your copy?

Initial responseVVVLTRFTW. Congratulations on your shiny new website GC, been reading and loving your stuff for years. Got my copy of Super Mario Galaxy 2 delivered a day early – how lucky am I! All I can say is… wow, wow, wow! Only played an hour and I can already see that Red Dead Redemption is going to have to sit on the backburner for a while. That darn plumber is going to be taking up a lot of my game time over the next few weeks. Amazing!Keep up the good work GC. All the best!Country MikePicked up Super Mario Galaxy 2 this morning and I can safely say that Sony and Microsoft could make 500 games between them and none of them would have a tenth of the imagination, creativity or fun that this game has.shauney2004 (gamertag)I was supposed to go to work today, but Super Mario Galaxy 2 turned up in the post. This is the first time I’ve moved from in front of the TV in two hoursâ¦Georg of the CupboardWaiting for PeaceInteresting review of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, GC. I was a bit disappointed by Metal Gear Solid 3 in the end, but this sounds interesting. I don’t own a PSP but I’m very tempted, even though it sounds like Peace Walker would be much better on the PlayStation 3 – or even just the PlayStation 2. What are the chances of that happening? Hulk Hogan GC:We’d say it was fairly likely on the PlayStation 2, except the multiplayer and online options would become difficult to replicate. Konami has hinted at a PlayStation 3 release, but without the time and expense of updating the graphics, we’re not sure whether that would go down well.

Market leaderWith touch screen technology (especially phones) really taking off, does GC think the success of the DS helped in any way?The TyGC:We’re sure it did. Even after all the hype there is still more than twice the number of Nintendo DS in the world than iPhones (130 million vs. 50 million).For the love of Green DayIn your review of Green Day: Rock Band, you said that “it doesn’t give the impression of being a labour of love.” I had the same feeling even as far back as a couple of months ago, as even the inclusion of Dookie (Green Day’s breakthrough, and arguably best, album) seemed to be something of an afterthought (see here ). At least Harmonix put more effort into it than they did AC/DC Live though.Sonic GoofRed Dead memoriesI can’t believe you said that you would give Red Dead Revolver a score of 7 or even 8. The game was totally average in every way (linear ,underwhelming graphics, dodgy controls) and to suggest that you might score it just one mark lower than Redemption is crazy considering the vast differences in quality, old Xbox or not.

A totally average game deserves a totally average score. 5/10 for me.mr moiffy (gamertag)GC:We said we’d have to play it again for a proper score, but we remember enjoying it a lot more than you apparently did.The real releaseDoes anyone know when DarkStar One: Broken Alliance is actually out? According to Xbox Live Dash it’s out now, upon enquiry a source at Live said they were given ‘duff Info’ and it’s out on the 25th. You say it’s out next week and the official website says it’s out on the 20th July. I’m confused.ColeBGC:It’s out next week. Or at least that’s what the publisher told us.The usual suspectsI like the thought that GC has “regular nutters”. I imagine them kept in a pen out back, looked after by Nigel Humdrum.DuckdeeGC:Well, we keep their e-mails in a folder marked ‘Nutters’. That’s kind of the same thing.Why do you do it?Bobbleheaddy, don’t try make excuses for quitters. I find it highly unlikely that any one of those things happen at the exact point the person goes 3-0 down on FIFA. There must be some viewers of GC who constantly quit when losing. Write in – tell us why.

EA should have a system in place so that if you quit out of five games when trailing you will be hit with three days suspension from their servers. That’ll learn ’em!BobbyDavroIsMyDad (PSN ID)Inbox also-ransSo wait, Portal 2 isn’t going to be shown at E3 but there is going to be a surpriseâ¦ that’s something to do with Portal 2? I’m confused.FrankyGC:Everybody’s confused.Just a quick thanks to Amazon for the Les Paul Guitar Hero controller I bought from them. Just £24 and delivered in under 48 hours. Top service.Dazz599 (gamertag)How are you even supposed to pronounce Aerith and why was it changed?TwonkyI love Spurs (both the team and the cowboy accessory).redant22
